well i have lived in dorms for about 4-5 years so i know where you are coming from. wish i had pics from my last place... the smallest room i EVER seen or heard of in dormitory type of accommodations after i am done with my review session at around 7:00 pm i will try to post another pic to give you an idea if you are interested. i just pull my desk slightly forward to give enough room so the monitor barely touches the wall. not really hard to do, i convinced my once stubborn roomate into it and now he seems to like it a lot more (he upgraded from a 15'' lcd to a 19'' nf diamondtron)pull the desk forward to what extent? (yes i could have taken the shelf off if i needed to, but i didnt need to!) keep in mind that this was a dorm room and space was slightly limited.
i am quite a bit of a workspace nazi myself : i need to have monitor perfectly in the middle of the environment, i hate any attempts of trying to turn the monitor sideways in an angle :| plus if you have noticed i have speakers at equidistance(sp?) from each other, at ear level and as far apart as possible (even though most of my music listening takes place on headphones). feel free to critique my workplace while at it as anubis has pointed out, i dont use my computer desk to work on math problems or read text...
if thats what you value more, thats something really worthwhile. people see and hear things differently and for you sharpness/crispness happens to take higher priority, richness/lushness of colors in my caseas a sidenote, i have been able see much more detail in images, viewing on lcd than on a crt.
